University of Wales Trinity Saint David Library and Learning Resources acknowledges the possibility of outdated or harmful vocabulary in our catalogue, reflecting biases of the times in which the records were created.
In common with many academic libraries, the collections are described using controlled vocabularies, mainly Library of Congress Subject Headings, to allow consistent subject searches to be carried out. The terminology used is in the process of being reviewed; however, outdated or insensitive terms might still be present.
We are committed to implementing the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion in our cataloguing practices and to using bibliographic descriptions that represent marginalised groups respectfully. We welcome your feedback on any improvements we can make. Please email us at library@uwtsd.ac.uk.
